I think of coconut and immediately imagine the beach and summer; I love making desserts with its flavor. In anticipation of making a coconut crust tart, I begin by preparing a delicious Coconut Custard Cream using coconut flour and whole coconut sugar that I found at the supermarket. The recipe is very easy, prepare it with me.

Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups whole milk
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar (whole)
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp rice flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
Tools
- Kitchen Scale
- Pot 9.5 inches
- Bowl
- Electric Whisk
Steps
Pour the milk into a pot, keeping a few tablespoons aside, and bring to a boil. In a bowl, whisk the yolks with coconut sugar, add the sifted cornstarch and rice flour, and continue whisking. Pour the reserved milk and mix.
Also add the rice flour, mix well, and pour the mixture into the boiling milk, keeping the heat low. Continue stirring and at the first bubbles, wait 3 minutes and turn off. Pour the Coconut Custard Cream into a bowl and if not using immediately, cover with plastic wrap to prevent a crust from forming. The yield is almost 600 grams; as a dessert, it serves 3 portions and is enough to fill a cake. Once cooled, store in the fridge for no more than 2 days.
